Great introduction, but without a proper HDRI to ‘grab’ the highlights, the renders end up rather dull.
Especially in the chrome parts and stronger reflections.
In this situation it might be good to render the specular and reflections separately, so you can boost them in comp.
It will give a better end result.
But great tutorial nonetheless! :)
